Official synopsis Publisher
“Deluged with gorgeous language and imagery, Mandira Pattnaik’s novella-in-flash Glass/Fire reveals the magic in the malleability of prose and style. Powerful, complex, and emotional, Pattnaik wonderfully threads a narrative about families and friends and loss and love, showing the possibilities of what happens when glass is set under pressure-some might not make it, cracking and shattering, while others carve their own existences, using heat and friction to shape their lives. From rain to mangoes, all natural elements serve a purpose, and Glass/Fire encompasses galaxies and channels them through its characters, blending scientific truths and harsh realities with hope, leading the reader into the unknown capabilities of fiction.”
